This Girl Wins Three Hundred Million Dollars

Chapter 149

In the evening, Yu Shu and Shen Youlin leaned over the desk, writing and doodling on paper, summing up their achievements of the day.

Yu Shu: "I got my sister to eat meat, I'll add one point for myself."

Shen Youlin snorted: "I got her to cook, I'll add one point."

"She rolled her eyes in the kitchen, one more point."

"She was called out by my singing, one more point."

Yu Shu disagreed: "But it was my idea, I should get a point too!"

"Okay, okay, you get a point. She said we were both the same, so we both get a point. Tsk, our scores are tied."

Yu Shu smiled meaningfully: "You'll be on top in the first half of the night, and I'll be on top in the second half."

"Are you sure you'll have the energy for the second half?" Shen Youlin's words carried a suggestive tone, smiling mischievously.

Yu Shu raised an eyebrow: "Why don't you try?"

"I'll try, I'll try!"

Shen Youfei rinsed her mouth with water after vomiting, raising her head to look at her pale reflection in the mirror, the person in the mirror staring back at her.

She hadn't eaten meat for over a decade, and today she broke that rule, leaving her stomach a little unsettled, and her mind unsettled too.

Yet the savory-sweet taste of meat still lingered on her lips, making her tongue crave for more.

The next morning, just as Shen Youfei finished her morning practice, Shen Youlin came over with two Tao robes, presenting them to Shen Youfei like treasures.

"Sister, look at this pure silk Tao robe, I had it made by the best clothing designer in our country. It's entirely handmade, every stitch sewn by veteran craftsmen with decades of experience. Our Chinese designers are amazing these days, not far behind those foreign designers. But when it comes to our ancestral heritage, those foreign designers don't know anything - we need our own homegrown designers to do it right."

As one night passed, Shen Youfei's tolerance increased, and she calmly brewed tea while allowing Shen Youlin to ramble on endlessly.

"This pure silk, the solid colors are called 'colorless ground,' doesn't it resonate with the Taoist principles of 'non-pursuit' and 'natural harmony'? Look at these floral patterns, so exquisite yet humble and simple! From another angle, it's the Bagua Diagram! Wearing this Tao robe, you'll be the brightest star among all Taoists!"

Shen Youfei remained unresponsive, and Shen Youlin frowned, casually tossing the robe aside and picking up another to show her: "If you don't like that one, no problem, I'll just burn it later. Dear customer, take a look at this gossamer Tao robe. Oh my! It's incredible, incredible. It may not seem special, but the real highlight is its unique tailoring! The designer mentioned some advanced international tailoring techniques, but I can't recall the details. Just try it on, the tailoring is extraordinary, the fit will be unlike anything else!"

Shen Youlin eagerly promoted the robes, but Shen Youfei remained unmoved, continuing to brew and drink her tea.

"For you, my dear family, I won't ask for 998 or 98, just nod your head~"

Shen Youfei placed a cup of tea in front of him: "You must be tired, take a break."

Dejected, Shen Youlin tossed aside the robes he was holding and sat down, pouting as he picked up the tea cup and blew on the hot liquid.

Seeing the silk robes carelessly thrown on the ground, Shen Youfei's heart ached - how could such fine materials be treated so poorly!

Shen Youlin drank the entire cup of tea in one gulp, letting out an exaggerated satisfied sigh: "Ah~ Sister, I need more!"

Shen Youfei poured him another cup: "I haven't seen Yu Shu today?"

Shen Youlin proudly puffed out his chest: "Your brother is just too good, she couldn't get up."

Is this something a Taoist should hear? Is this something one should say to a Taoist?

Shen Youlin fidgeted in his chair, seemingly with ADHD: "Sister, you don't know, Yu Shu is so bold, last night she actually said she wanted to be on top in the second half. Hah, like I'd let her have that kind of energy..."

"Get out!" Shen Youfei slammed her teacup on the table, sternly rebuking him.

"Alright!" To Shen Youfei's surprise, Shen Youlin obediently picked up the robes from the floor and headed for the exit.

As he crossed the threshold, Shen Youfei's voice came from behind: "Leave the robes."

"Sure thing~" The shopkeeper instantly turned back, neatly placing the robes down, "You have excellent taste, dear customer~"

After leaving Shen Youfei's place, Shen Youlin hurried back to the small building, running into Jiang Han who was out for a morning jog. He snorted, raising his chin haughtily as he walked past her.

"Where's Yu Shu?"

Shen Youlin immediately perked up, walking back two steps to stand in front of her, solemnly stating: "She couldn't get up, you know how much energy a couple's exercise burns? Of course you don't, you single dogs wouldn't understand."

"Pathetic." Jiang Han spat and walked away.

With two victories under his belt, Shen Youlin ate two extra large meat buns for breakfast.

After breakfast, Shen Youlin brought Yu Shu, who carried her study materials, to Shen Youfei's residence.

Shen Youfei copied sutras, Yu Shu took notes from an online course on her tablet, while Shen Youlin and Jiang Han played with ants in the courtyard. Their game somehow led to another argument, and they decided to go to the mountain behind to have a fishing contest.

Before leaving, Shen Youlin pointed to his cheek: "Darling, give me a Lucky Kiss~"

Yu Shu grabbed his head and planted a loud smacking kiss on his lips.

Jiang Han spat: "Gross couple!"

"Oh my, this single dog is reeking of sourness, maybe we should skin and fry her!"

"Skin me?" Jiang Han rolled up her sleeves, "I'll knock your teeth out!"

"Bring it on, I'm not afraid of you!"

"Put your phone down, or are you going to call your bodyguards?"

The two bickered and roughhoused as they left, finally leaving the small courtyard in its usual tranquility. Shen Youfei sighed - it was never easy.

With the quiet, it almost became too quiet. Shen Youfei glanced at Yu Shu, who was diligently attending her online class with headphones on, her heart softening as she smiled and continued copying the sutras.

With Yu Shu's buff, Shen Youlin returned triumphant, bringing back two baskets full of fish, two wild chickens, and a wild rabbit. He excitedly showed Shen Youfei their haul, chattering non-stop.

This scene made Shen Youfei feel a momentary sense of déjà vu, as if Shen Youlin and Jiang Han were still children, and she looked towards the entrance, seeing the leisurely figure of Yan Xingnan following the two kids back.

"Fei Fei..."
